It was a great day for Windsor track and field participants at the North Coast Section Redwood Empire Qualifier meet hosted by Santa Rosa High School, as the Running Jags advanced several athletes to the Meet of Champions.
Most athletes entered the NCS REQ with one goal in mind – a top-seven finish in their respective event, a mark that would extend their season at least one more week and sustain hope of reaching the State Championships next month.
The MOC, the last qualifier before the prestigious State meet, will be held this Friday and Saturday (May 25-26) at Edwards Stadium in Berkeley. Trials will begin on Friday, followed by the finals on Saturday.
Leading the way for the Running Jags was junior distance specialist Lucas Chung, who advanced to the Meet of Champions in both the 1,600 and 3,200 Meter events. Also moving on to the MOC are Vince Corday (Triple Jump, 800 Meters), Emily Johnson (Long Jump).
Below are the complete results for Windsor athletes at the NCS REQ.
